Are session variables available in Session_OnEnd?
- Thread starter BigM
- Start date
Session variables are available until the script that terminated the session finishes executing. Example:
Given the function in global.asa:
will generate
But after the page has finished the session variables will be unavailable.
Session_OnEnd is fired just before the session ends so the above will hold.
(of course this will fail if the session times out because the response.writes are not possible in that case)
Code:
...
session("name") = "John"
session.abandon
response.write session("name") & "<BR>"
response.write "page finished<BR>"
...Given the function in global.asa:
Code:
sub session_onEnd()
response.Write("name = " & Session("Name") & "<BR>")
response.Write("Session terminated<BR>")
end subwill generate
Code:
John
page finished
name = John
session terminatedBut after the page has finished the session variables will be unavailable.
Session_OnEnd is fired just before the session ends so the above will hold.
